'You hear rumours' - Moises Caicedo breaks silence on Liverpool transfer links and Brighton future

Moises Caicedo has delivered a blunt verdict on his future amid rumours linking him with a move to Liverpool.

The Reds have been frequently credited with an interest in signing the Brighton midfielder over the last few months. Chelsea have also been heavily linked with a move for Caicedo during the January transfer window.

Reports have claimed that while Liverpool may admire Caicedo, they do not plan to make a move in January due to Brighton’s valuation of the player. It’s Chelsea who appear most likely, if any club, to sign the Ecuador international this month, if reports are to be believed.

Brighton have reportedly placed a £75m valuation on the 21-year-old, if any club wishes to try and sign him before the transfer window closes. And amid this speculation, the midfielder himself has addressed rumours linking him with a move away from the Amex Stadium.

“I am focussed on Brighton,” Caicedo told Brighton’s club website. “I am here, I’m playing every day. Things from outside don’t trouble me, nor does it take that focus away because I’m focussed only on here.

“I handle [the speculation] well. You hear rumours here and there, but I only try to be focused on the club where I am now, the club which opened the doors for me to be playing every week.”
